This handcrafted pewter photo frame features an intricate Celtic design inspired by Archibald Knox's original clock design for Liberty & Co.

The frame's compact dimensions make it ideal for displaying cherished memories on a mantelpiece, sideboard, or desk. The combination of polished pewter and translucent enamel creates a timeless aesthetic that complements both traditional and contemporary home décor.
About the Design
The Celtic motifs featured in this frame reflect the interconnected patterns and flowing lines that define Archibald Knox's distinctive artistic vision. The blue and green enamel work is applied by hand to copper bases, which are then inlaid into the pewter—a traditional technique used in early 20th-century Art Nouveau metalwork.
